Re: Leica D-Lux 4 or Panasonic LX3
To confuse matters a little more, Spanish-speaking countries often change the composition of family names placing the father family name first, then the mother's. I try to use both - actually my passport displays it that way...

Simple, use a pointer to an arbitrary length string. For that matter, the software used to email it worked fine. A name structure could have a type field that enumerated how the name was constructed. Likewise, the set of subnames are of a finite set of types: family personal title matrilineal patrilineal etc. It's an interesting, but solvable problem. > > -- > Nuno Miguel dos Santos Baeta > ille nihil dubitat quem nulla scientia dictat > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > PDML@pdml.net > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- The fastest way to get your question answered on the net is to post the wrong answer.

Just a small correction to my email... A better, still direct, translation of 'dos' is 'of', as it gives a notion of belonging.

Re: Leica D-Lux 4 or Panasonic LX3
Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking Portugese, but didn't find a translator. Which would not have helped me much, it seems. I will corrrect my address book. But as you know, if the name doesn't match exactly, Mail doesn't recognize the name. When I find out the correct name of some of these PDMLrs, and change the address book, their mail is no loonger recognized. I'll fiddle with it.

RE: Leica D-Lux 4 or Panasonic LX3
From: Nuno Miguel dos Santos Baeta Hello! I want to buy a P&S camera with a viewfinder. Because of the viewfinder "detail", I narrowed my options to the Leica D-Lux 4 or Panasonic LX3 - an external viewfinder is available for both. Is there any real difference between these two cameras? TIA As far as the viewfinder "detail", much as I hate to say this, I think Canon still offers several P&S models with real viewfinders. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Leica D-Lux 4 or Panasonic LX3
I find a quite interesting phenomenon ... I know many who have purchased the G9/G10 cameras. After an initial period of delight with them, they find they stop using them, aren't getting such good results, etc etc. The G10's controls are definitely nice, if you don't get the picture quality you're looking for, they're for naught. I also know many who have purchased the LX3 and DLux-4. I had the LX1. Although I find cameras this small a little clumsy in use, these cameras return remarkable image quality. I've exhibited and won awards with LX1 photographs... I prefer the looks of the DLux4 ... but might balk at the premium price. I only use the RAW capture facilities ... Lightroom 2.2 and above handle them. Godfrey On Mar 19, 2009, at 1:50 AM, David Savage wrote: I've used both, but I like the knobs & button interface of the G10.

However Panasonic is using had-coded lens corrections to compensate for distortion on the lens which some take offense to. The LX3 has a much better lens and sensor than the G10.

The LX3 has an integrated grip while the D-Lux 4 does not, but offers a larger bolt-on grip. The JPEG rendering is a bit different and the Leica offers a superior software package. I'd get the LX3 if the integrated grip works for you, but the Leica if you prefer a larger or smaller package. -- M.
